Guan Yinping

Guan Yinping (204-271) was the daughter of Guan Yu. When Liu Bei became King of Hanzhong, Sun Quan's messenger Zhuge Jin brought a proposal to marry Sun Quan's son to Guan Yinping. Guan Yu refused, saying that he would never give the daughter of a tiger to the son of a dog. Guan Yinping was diligent in her training and was constantly garbed in combat gear.

Biography
Guan Yinping was born in 204 AD, the daughter of Guan Yu. She was the sister of Guan Suo and Guan Xing, and the half-sister of Guan Ping (who was adopted by Guan Yu). Yinping's name came from a silver treasure that her father's sworn brother Zhang Fei plucked from Lu Bu during the Battle of Hulao Gate. By the time she was eighteen, she was a perilous beauty, well-versed in martial arts. She was asked to marry Sun Quan's son Sun Deng by Zhuge Jin, but Guan Yu did not want to give the "daughter of a tiger" to the "son of a dog".

Her first battle was the Battle of Jing Province in 214 AD, when she assisted her father and brothers in fighting an attack by Eastern Wu general Lu Su on the province in one of many skirmishes between Wu and Shu Han. In 219 AD, she fought at the Battle of Fan Castle with her family again, but during the battle, she lost both her brother Guan Ping and her father due to the alliance of Cao Wei to the north and Shu's former ally, Wu. Guan Yinping carried a dual-headed mace into battle against Wu at the Battle of Yiling in 222 AD and in Zhuge Liang's Northern Expeditions against Wei, where she lost her brother Guan Xing due to illness in 234 AD. Afterwards, Guan Yinping and Guan Suo fought alongside each other in the constant warfare with Wei, taking part in Jiang Wei's Northern Expeditions from 249 AD to 263 AD. The two of them fought in the defense of Chengdu, but the attack failed. She joined in Zhong Hui's Rebellion in 264 AD and fought at the Battle of Shangyong, where she impressed the Wu general Ding Feng with her might, hidden behind her tiny frame. Guan Yinping died in 271 AD in Western Jin, which overthrew Wei in 265 AD (which had, in turn, taken over Shu in 263 AD).
